| | POW-MIA Bracelets |
 | | On each bracelet is engraved, at a minimum, the name, rank, service, loss date, and country of loss of a missing man from the Vietnam War. |
 | | The first bracelets were made by a young lady named Carol Bates, who now works for the Defense POW-Missing Persons Office (that is, she, Carol, was younger then than now, as we all were). |
 | | I was the National Chairman of the POW/MIA Bracelet Campaign for VIVA (Voices In Vital America), the Los Angeles based student organization that produced and distributed the bracelets during the Vietnam War. |
